   [2] Zverev had under control from start to finish this match against more than 20 cm shorter opponent. He raced to a *3:1 lead, got broken, but afterwards found no problem at holding. He won the tie-break 7/0 and got breaks at 1-all in 2nd at 2-all in 3rd set (squandered a break point in that set for a double break cushion). Born to French parents, but representing Great Britain, Fery [114, wild card] was a revelation of the tournament, but his strokes are flat and their pace is quite moderate, therefore Zverev’s forehand was working tremendously well, on top of that the German was serving his first service at 72% in and his second serve 187 kph on average!

   Serve & volley: Zverev 5/5, Fery 0/1

   ☆ Almost 24-year-old Fery, who had won just two Slam matches prior to Wimbledon ’26, survived two five-setters in a row (Bergs, Dimitrov), concluded in deciding tie-breaks. Especially his third round match against Bergs was remarkable – Fery came back from a 1:4 deficit in successive sets!
